How on earth did nobody spot it? His Wiki page was only updated a few hours ago. If this is correct, that invalidates WEP's pick of Ashkin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve 608 Posted September 27, 2020 I’m struggling to understand why WEP’s pick is not valid Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ulitzer95 12,660 Posted September 27, 2020 4 minutes ago, Steve said: I’m struggling to understand why WEP’s pick is not valid Because Ashkin's death was announced before WEP picked him, meaning that there's a remote chance the player could have learnt of his death before entering the individual in the game. It's discounted as a means of total fairness to other players. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's happened to all of us at some point. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
